...time defending champion Penn is once again the team to beat in the Ancient Eight, one year removed from romping to a league title at 12-2 and giving three-seed Texas a run for its money in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. Reigning Player of the Year Ibrahim Jaaber returns for his senior year, as does All-Ivy forward Mark Zoller. Long-time head coach Fred Dunphy is not back, however, after leaving Penn, but not Philadelphia, in the spring, to replace Hall-of-Famer John Chaney at fellow Big 5 institution Temple.
